Zhou Mei recovered from her shock after hearing this. She looked at Xia Shige, then at Tang Shiqi, opened her mouth, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhou Meiqian originally planned to promise Xia Shige a cleaning job at Zhou's, but the condition was that Xia Shige had to explain to Zhou's investigation team: Lu Siyuan's previous knife attack was self-defense, and it was all Xia Shige's deliberate frame-up.
Zhou Mei planned to find a random excuse to fire Xia Shige after Lu Siming was reinstated.
After all, the employment rate is skyrocketing nowadays, Zhou's benefits are good, and cleaning jobs in Zhou's are very popular.
However, looking at Tang Shiqi sitting aside, Zhou Meiqian didn't dare to say a word of the words she had prepared.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Zhou Ran will take over the Zhou family business in the future, and Zhou Mei must be crazy to offend Tang Shiqi's friends.
Not only that, Zhou Mei suddenly remembered what her mother had said before: the higher-ups had specifically instructed that Lu Siming's matter must be thoroughly investigated.
At that time, Zhou Meiqin and Lu Siming both thought that the competitor had a strong backing, so they sought support from senior management.
But now it seems that it was because Tang Shiqi stood up for her friend and whispered something in Zhou Ran's ear.
Seeing the two people opposite looking at her in confusion, Zhou Mei forced a smile on her face and said tentatively: "Hello, Miss Xia, I am your elder brother Lu Siming's girlfriend."
Xia Shige shook his head upon hearing this and replied, "Lu Siming is not my eldest brother. I have nothing to do with the Lu family. Miss Zhou, please speak up."
Seeing Xia Shige say this, Zhou Mei smiled awkwardly and said, "Miss Xia, this is it. I heard that you had some misunderstandings with Lu Siming's brother before, and Lu Siming has been demoted because of this. I thought... since we are all family, if there are misunderstandings, it would be better to resolve them in time."
After Zhou Mei finished speaking, she carefully looked at Xia Shige's face again. Seeing that Xia Shige looked normal, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued to speak tentatively: "After all, this matter has nothing to do with Lu Siming. It's all his brother's fault... Why don't you, Miss Xia, show some mercy and give Siming another chance...?"
Seeing Xia Shige lowering her eyes and keeping silent, Zhou Mei quickly added: "Don't worry, Miss Xia, I will make sure Lu Siming disciplines his brother and he will never dare to offend Miss Xia again."
Then Zhou Mei said to Tang Shiqi who was standing beside her: "Shiqi, Lu Siming is actually quite capable. Isn't it better to let him resume his job and continue to bring benefits to the company than to let him do odd jobs?"
Xia Shige looked at Zhou Mei's nervous expression and sighed deeply.
No matter how you look at it, Zhou Mei was spoiled by her family when she grew up. Now she was begging them humbly for Lu Siming. Xia Shige suddenly felt it was not worth it for her.
It would be fine if Lu Siming was sincere to her, but Xia Shige knew that Lu Siming was in his heart with Lu Sixue.
Then Xia Shige looked at Zhou Mei and said sincerely, "Miss Zhou, the Lu family is bankrupt now, why bother wasting your time on Lu Siming? Excuse me, I'm afraid Lu Siming is not a good match. If you want to be sincere to him, Miss Zhou, you should be more cautious."
Zhou Mei didn't expect Xia Shige to say that and was stunned for a moment.
Zhou Mei was still very satisfied with Lu Siming.
After spending some time together, Zhou Mei felt that Lu Siming was both tolerant and patient with her.
After Lu Siming was demoted, Zhou Mei's mother advised her to break up with Lu Siming and find someone else.
Zhou Mei also understood her mother's thoughts, but since she started dating Lu Siming, Zhou Mei found that she could no longer look down on others.
Those men were either not as handsome as Lu Siming, or not as gentle as Lu Siming. Moreover, they did not have Lu Siming's resume from a prestigious university, nor did they have the noble temperament of Lu Siming.
This is something that can only be cultivated through the accumulation of wealth from generation to generation.
Zhou Mei suppressed her displeasure and said to Xia Shige, "Miss Xia, I know there are conflicts between you and your sister, but you don't know the relationship between me and Lu Siming, so you don't have to make such comments. Lu Siming... he treats me very well!"
Xia Shige sighed helplessly when she heard this. She knew that she couldn't persuade a girl who was in love.
Tang Shiqi on the side said: "Cousin, have you ever heard of a kind of man? This kind of man will be very good to the woman around him when he is down and out, and will thank the woman for not leaving him."
"But once they become rich, they will dump the woman as soon as possible. Whether it is cold violence or hot violence, they will use every possible means to force the woman to break up."
Zhou Mei was a little confused when she heard this. She frowned and asked, "You...what do you want to say?"
Tang Shiqi and Xia Shige looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
Then Tang Shiqi looked at Zhou Mei and said seriously, "I shouldn't have said this, but you are Zhou Ran's cousin after all. I must remind you that Lu Siming may not be sincere to you. He has always had ulterior motives towards the sister who was taken away by mistake."
